Home Party Jewelry Exchange

This home party jewelry exchange is a real gem! You can now "shop" for jewelry, accessories, purses and even shoes without breaking out the plastic!

We all love to go to a party with great party favors. With this home party, the party favors are built in!

But you don't have to limit the party to just jewelry: accessories including purses, scarves, and those fancy shoes that were worn only once to your cousin's wedding are all fair game!

Most of us girls have jewelry and accessories we haven't worn for quite a while; they're still fun, but we'd like something new.

We've all purchased a purse, a necklace, or pair of shoes especially for an event or party, and worn the item only a few times. It's time for that well-cared-for item to get a new life!

For the home party jewelry exchange, each guest is asked to bring at least one piece of gently used, pre-owned costume jewelry: old necklaces, bracelets, hair accessories or whatever she is willing to part with.

Each guest chooses something new for every old item she brings!

You can play games to help guests select a new item, such as asking each guest to gift wrap her item so that the contents are a surprise. Then play a "white elephant" game in order to exchange the jewelry, shoes and accessories. Read more about this on our designer purse party page.

Dress up "purchases" with small gift bags that serve as party favors. Place a little tissue in each bag so the jewelry can be wrapped neatly and brought home just as it would from the store!

Purse Parties:
Money-Minded Tip for Fundraising

Jewelry and accessory exchange parties can also be thrown for your charitable organization.

Send invitations inviting friends to a Purse Party Fundraiser. Let guests know the name of your charity, and a little something about the charity.

Simply ask each girl to bring an item, such as a purse, as well as $10 to participate.

The party works the same way as a purse party or jewelry exchange party, except that all proceeds are donated to your charity.

Your guests will feel good knowing they helped ... and enjoy getting something new in the process.

Decorate with photos from magazines or catalogs that depict the latest fashions worn with costume jewelry. Lay the jewelry out on a table with the photos to give your guests new ideas on how to wear the old pieces.

Of course, you'll want to add to the fun with a selection of your favorite party appetizers and mixed drinks!

For even more purse party and jewelry exchange party fun, play the "What's in Your Purse?" game. It's a great way to inject a lot a laugher into already fantastic creative themed party ideas.
